If I don't specify a stock price, which price will be used for the calculation?

Accepted Answer

Live price (current price updated to the most recent minute).

When should I select "Changed workplace"?

When you are no longer employed at this company. Then, input your average gross monthly salary for your last 12 months there. The salary is needed to determine the Bituah Leumi rate.

Question 8

If I don't specify a dollar rate, which rate will be used?

Live USD-ILS rate, updated to the most recent minute.

Question 9

When should I select "Extra capital gain"?

Accepted Answer

When you've sold other investments (or other RSUs) this year, and you have capital gain or loss from them. Capital gain should be inserted as a positive number, while capital loss should be inserted as a negative number. The calculator will determine your capital tax rate. If you have a capital loss, it will be subtracted from the taxable amount.

Accepted Answer

No, Net excludes dividends.

Question 11

When should I use more than one plan?

Which stocks is this calculator designed to work with?

This RSU calculator is designed specifically for companies listed on NASDAQ or the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE). If your stock is listed on TASE, please add '.TA' at the end of the ticker symbol — for example: Bank Hapoalim → POLI.TA.

Question 13

For which countries are the tax regulations applicable in the RSU calculator?

Accepted Answer

Israel only.
It is based on Section 102 of the Income Tax Ordinance in Israel.

Question 14

Does the website store my personal information?

Accepted Answer

No, the website does not save your data; it is used solely for calculations.

Question 15

Why is my monthly salary required?

Accepted Answer

The calculator requires your monthly gross income to determine your tax rate. Rest assured, the data is not saved.

Question 16

Selling all my shares could result in a higher tax rate, correct?

Accepted Answer

Yes, selling a large number of shares and moving up to a higher tax bracket will increase your tax rate. The RSU calculator will take your new rate into account.

Question 17

Are there additional fees determined by my trustee?

Accepted Answer

This site considers a broker fee of 0.1% of the gross amount and a trustee fee, which is the higher of $0.05 per stock sold or $4. Additionally, a wire transfer fee of 15 ILS (or 15$ if selling in USD) is deducted from the "Net to bank."
These fees are not taxed, as they are not considered part of your income.

Your trustee may have different fee rates, but in most cases, the difference is negligible.

If the total selling price is too low, the calculator might display negative values in the "Net to bank" result, due to those fees.
